Re: PIP I want to see your......
I don't know if I have a pic of the whole room. Here are the centerpieces. We collected the bottles over the year we were engaged. They were also our table names.
P/SAIF Welcome

7DPO Progesterone: low. CD3 BW: normal, HSG: clear
DX: severe MFI (low all 3) and low T. Undergoing replacement therapy.
I don't have a picture of the decor. It wasn't really fancy anyway, but I do have a picture what held the seating cards. I made them by hand. They are suppose to look like a fox.
Doesn't sound like a very good photographer
Beautiful!

Not a professional pic obviously... (we don't get those until a year after our wedding album delivery!- lame!)
we used split peas/coffee beans and green apples... loved it!
Thanks! My mom and step mom picked our venue. I said yes, sight unseen. I was very proud of their choice
Your wedding is absolutely GORGEOUS!

Actually no....one of my bridesmaids mom was a photographer and she offered to use her own camera and time, all I had to do was pay for film. I was SO not happy with the outcome...but at least I didn't pay for more then film.
Our reception was on the beach, and we didn't have any tables or anything set up...but we did have a mariachi band and a very delicious chocolate cake!
Our #2 is on the way!
Oh that is cute! My step brother and his wife did something similar. They had a fall wedding and did green apples on the table. It was pretty cool.
Did you have people eating the apples? lol.
Every table was slightly different but there were three main designs. The two below and one that had a big glass bowl with floating lillies/fruit.
and we had a candy bar:
Edited for PIP FAIL!
Love this!!! Beautiful!!!!

Just a few of the many!!!
Here is a photo of the guest table centerpiece.
gorgeous, love the lighting!
Thank you!
A couple of different pictures of the centerpieces I made. Simple, but they mean a lot to me.
I took triple picture frames and reversed the hinges so they would fold back into a triangle. I printed pictures/song lyrics on vellum or each frame and there was a votive in the center. Each one had one of our e-pics, lyrics to a jazz standard love song, and a picture from the wedding of either my parents, DH's parents, or one of our grandparents. In the second picture, you can see the one from my grandparents' wedding day when they were both 16.
Edit: typo
Instead of numbering our tables, we named them and then gave a brief desciption of why they were important to us as a couple
We had our cocktail hour in the bistro next to the ballroom
Instead of party favors, we donated the money to charity
We had a baseball type thing going on. I loved it and wouldnt change anything. this was our centerpiece:
our "guest book"
Flower girls flowers (kinda looks like a baseball right?!?!)
Love these!

Another great thread!
We got married at Disney World and our reception was in the California Grill at the Contemporary Resort in the Napa Room. I wanted the view to be the focal point of the "decor" if that makes sense.
Here's a few pics from my facebook:
Our View:
*Edited to fix pic sized and add pics of the view.
Not too bad for our budget, but definitely not near as nice as some of you ladies.
